The speed of delivery of Ukrainian agricultural products decreased by more than half compared to last year.
During the two months of the marketing year (July-June), Ukraine exported 3.96 million tons of grain crops, the Ministry of Agrarian Policy reported on Wednesday, August 31.
Compared to the same period last year, export rates were 2.17 times lower (8.6 million tons).
